[edit] Appearence

The Hunters were dangerous predators described as being large, brown, hairless creatures with bat-like wings, long tails, sharp claws and long horned faces.

[edit] Abilities

They could travel through space and are naturally attracted to rifts in time and space. They are also immune to time-based afflictions. Hunters generally hunt alone, since they can easily kill a humanoid by themselves. They generally hunt by smell. They could also spit out a gold, acidic, rapidly hardening paste, which they use to trap their prey. (NA: The Pit) Hunters could also use their mouths to unleash psychic attacks. (DWM: The Curious Tale of Spring-Heeled Jack)
